Las principales publicaciones del medio publicaron críticas positivas para la película que auguran un excelente recorrido en festivales y prometen su distribución cinematográfica.

La prestigiosa publicación inglesa Sight & Sound  describió la película como “Luz al final del túnel. Una pequeña perla en la amplia programación del Festival.”; “Subject matter and cinematic experimentation merge coherently, since the theme licenses Kossakovsky to invent original compositions and camera movements to convey the rotundity of the earth, and the similarity of far-flung places as diverse as downtown Shanghai and a Patagonian wasteland, or as spookily similar (even in terms of their animal and human presences) as a Hawaiian island and its antipode in Botswana. The overall, even aside from the recurrent beauty of the photography, is humbling. We get a real sense of our life on earth – little more than fistfuls of ants rummaging around on the crust of a big and beautiful planet.”

El New York Times le dedicó un espacio en su cobertura. “Extraordinary and haunting scenes and wonderfully observed images of the diurnal rhythms of humanity and nature. The film’s Spanish title bears tribute to the Argentine brothers at Entre Ríos, who scrape a living from running a river ferry but are calmly at one with the nature that surrounds them and whose delightfully amusing, succinct conversations and speculations on that great wide world they will never see act as a narrative thread linking these serendipitously discovered places.”

Variety, uno de los más influyentes medios del espectáculo le dedicó un extenso artículo al poder cautivante de las imágenes creadas por Kossakovsky.

The Hollywood Reporter no escatimó elogios para la producción. “A breathtaking travelogue that views the world upside down, in eight striking locations exactly opposite each other on Earth.”

BBC Mundo realizó una interesante fotogalería de la película.
